Growing up in Northern Mexico and Texas, Fermin was always surrounded by great food. Curiosity and the need to start cooking for himself is what motivated him take a chance on culinary school at the Art Institute of Houston.

He came to Austin in 2009 when he landed a job on the line at La Condesa. Since then Fermin has worked with culinary teams at Uchiko, Launderette, and L'Oca D'Oro.
